Romantic Evening Out

by longhorn2289 at Citysearch

My wife and I went to Tallulah on a Tuesday evening around 7pm. The host seated us right away at our table in the corner of the room. The decor of the room is very simple with everything being in white. For an appetizer we ordered the Steamed P.E.I Mussels which came in Thai coconut sauce. This tasted very nice and was a good portion for two people. The sauce was good for dipping with the bread at the table. For dinner my wife had the Seared Marlin which was the special for that night. I had the Braised Short Rib. The Marlin was cooked like you would expect a high quality Tuna to be cooked, raw in the middle. It tasted great with the Mango salsa that came with it. The Braised Short Rib was fall-apart tender, you really don't need a knife for this dish. It came with my favorite part of the meal, Roasted Root Veggies. These had an awesome taste and solid consistancy that I like in my food. Our server was attentive but not intrusive. I liked that a lot since I don't really want to be bothered when I'm eating. We are looking forward to our next visit when we can try some of the other dishes on the menu that looked good.
